From Surfing to Sepsis: Real Talk with Laura Crane

Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND, a podcast hosted by Nutritional Therapist, Grace Kingswell that spans everything form bio hacks to women's health, sex, relationships, health and nutrition.    Today's guest is Laura Crane, ex-professional surfer, mental health campaigner and all round amazing human. Laura came to crazy amounts of fame when she entered the Love Island villa, which we talk about at the start of this episode, but before that she was making serious waves in the surf scene as a sponsored athlete.   The overriding reason that I wanted to chat to her though was because I saw her put up an insta story about an operation she's just had to clear up an ovarian cyst which brought on severe sepsis and left her in A&E fighting off an infection that's changed her life forever.    This episode is sponsored by Davy J water wear and I'm thrilled to be able to introduce you to the brand!
